We Hit The Streets Of FiDi: What Are SF Women Wearing To Work?

We wanted to see how dressed up some San Francisco women were getting. So last week during lunch hours, we hit the streets of the Financial District with Melissa to photograph women doing their work thang! We asked about their dreams too… you know, we ARE a city of dreamers. 🙂

A lot of women we photographed told us they found true enjoyment in dressing up for work. And each one had such a boldness and light about them. Not to get super cheese on you- but talking with these women left Cynthia, Melissa and I feeling so enlightened and inspired. We talked with some REALLY cool f*cking women. It was an awesome day!

Oh and really quick: wanted to say what bad asses women in their 40s are. All of them so confidently stated their age, it was like.. *Finger Snap* Grown woman and owning it! LOVED that. And appreciated them so much for it.

Women of San Francisco out there doing work… how much we admire you. <3
